Alright, so i have news. The good news is that we can load code onto the robot using the newest usb-serial cable. The bad news is that this was also the case with the first and second cable at the beginnings of their lives, and then they failed for no apparent reason. So while buying a new USB-serial cable seems to solve the problem temporarily, we can't just just buy a new usb-serial cable every couple weeks, especially if it fails at the competition. Is the only solution using an older laptop?
